Moo Challenge #23

Butterflies—the Make a Moo or Two theme this week—remind me of Emma. When she was about eight or nine, a monarch butterfly landed on her lip and stayed there for ages. Animals like her too. Just last week, a sleek marmalade cat followed her home from the bus and meowed outside her bedroom window for about an hour.I’m not sure what this combination of butterflies and Emma will look like on your browser, though, because I haven’t calibrated my monitor to my new computer yet. It’s not a job I’m forward to because I’m so picky about how the color onscreen matches my print out. But since it’s now or never for this week’s moos, I took a stab at it anyway. Then it turned out that one of my moos was the wrong size, so I had to start over again. Mistakes like this always seem to happen when I’m over-tired, but if I only did things when I felt fresh and vibrant, there are a lot of things that would never get done.

My art has appeared several times in ATC Quarterly. It's the coolest zine around.

Moos created by several artists in Europe and North America, including me, were published in this issue.

RubberStampMadness did an interview with me here on my mail art activities and also published several of my stamps and postcards. I went on to write for the magazine and did articles, interviews and a column called "The Creative Process" which prompted me to write my book.

Canadian Scrapbooker published an article I wrote and illustrated on making ATCs.

Teesha Moore published my digital collages in a couple of issues of her popular zine "The Studio."
